and remember all the wonderful things that we
have to be grateful for at FCMS.

plenty. Thank you for the honor of working with
your scholars every day!

Screenagers:
During this past month your
scholars got to view the documentary film
Screenagers. Parents also attended a
community event to view the film and hold a
discussion about all the challenges that our
teens are facing when it comes to the power of
social media. Please talk to your scholar’s
about screen time and help them make safe
decisions around their use of social media.
Let’s Get the Conversation Started!
World of Work!
The 7th grade students explored the
World of Work (W.O.W!) Expo on
Thursday, October 25th.
Students got the opportunity to explore
10 of the 16 Career Clusters identified by
the Virginia Department of Education
including: Health Sciences, Finance,
Agriculture, Public Service & Information
Technology to name a few!
Many local businesses sponsored this
event so students could see what career
opportunities exist right here if the
Winchester/Frederick County area.
The W.O.W! Expo sparked a ton of
curiosity and students loved every minute
of the experience.

th Grade Career Café
In eighth grade, scholars have the opportunity to
meet with and learn from a variety of professionals
and explore possibilities through our Career Cafe
program. Our goal is to reach as many scholars as
possible, with an attendance goal of 78%. Signing up
to attend is easy with sign-up sheets available during
lunch periods leading up to Cafe dates.
So far this year, scholars have had the opportunity to
meet with Kelly Masters (Pharmacist), Colonel Doug
Hall (United States Air Force, Director,
Congressional & Interagency Affairs, United States
Transportation) and Sarah Kite (Industrial and
Systems Engineer).
We have two more Career Cafe opportunities
coming up in November (Heather Enloe, Attorney)
and December (Virginia Delegate Chris Collins).
If you have questions or are interested in
volunteering your time to share with our scholars
please contact Mr. Luke Lauer via email
lauerl@fcpsk12.net or via phone at (540)888-4296.
